Event Overview:
The emergence of mRNA as a versatile platform for vaccine development holds immense promise beyond COVID-19. An essential part of any mRNA vaccine is the 5’ cap structure, which is critical to the stability and expression of an mRNA. This presentation will explore the impact of 5’ cap on the functions and properties of mRNA and provide an overview of the latest developments in mRNA capping technology. By understanding the critical attributes of 5' cap structures and employing innovative capping strategies, mRNA drug developers can enhance manufacturing efficiency, reduce costs, and streamline the manufacturing process of mRNA-based medicines. This accelerates the development of novel mRNA-based vaccines and offers new hope for patients worldwide.
